What is hero? Hero means someone who did a great things for the others, not for themself, and this kind of hero always died in the end. Hero is the person who help others and abandon themself, hero is the person who save the world and give up their lives, hero is the person who took the darkness and despair and bring the hope and love to the world. Everybody have a hero in their heart, it can be their parents, it can be a famous person, it also can be a person who is not real, who is from novels or myths. In my mind Prometheus is gero.
He was a young Titan and no great admire of Zeus. Because he want ask Zeus fire for human, and he got Zeus angry, Zeus was reject his request. So Prometheus try to got the fire by himself. He stolen the fire and gave to human. This matter was know by Zeus and he was really angry about that, he thought Prometheus were agrone his order and help for human, so he gave a punishment for Promethsus. He drag Prometheus off to the a mountain and used a special chains which even a Titan could not break. Zeus also sent two vultures to eating his liver every day, and on the next day he will grow new liver. Prometheus endured this pain for a long time, until the other hero help him and killed the vultures. Prometheus was freedom.
The Prometheus story was shocked me at the first time. I don't know why, why he give uo his life to help human even though he know Zeus will be angry? Why he prefer to has punishment and want help people? After a long time, I know the reason. Just because human was made by Prometheus. It is almost like his children, he want his children grow up healthy. He knew Zeus is a self-fish and Tyrant, but he still choose to help human, and endured the suffer. He is hero, no one can negate it. Prometheus is the most famous hero in the world, we still have many tradition for remember and for him. The Olympic flame lighting ceremony, it is thank for Prometheus bring the fire to human. He give up his everything, risk that to help the people. He is the greatest hero in my mind.
